The dripping of red blood was now accumulating forming a huge pool of red , it looked like a tiny puddle of rain, the one you happily splash in as children wearing yellow raincoats and happy giggles. Ji Eun remembered the feeling or splashing in rain, she remembered the rain being splashed onto someone else and the giggles not only from her but from another person, another familiar face. Ji Eun was unconscious but her eyes were half opened, tears fell from her left before her right slowly followed in pursuit.
Funny enough, she remembered her mother telling her that if the tear falls from the right , it symbolised happiness but when it falls from the left it meant sadness. It wasn't all bullshit because it was the only word that could describe what she felt right now, pain. The sound of the ambulance was increasing and it was horribly loud, people yelling and strangers attempting to carry her out of the vehicle, placing her frail body on a white, long stretcher.
"She's unconscious!" One yelled
I'm not. She wanted to yell that out loud but she couldn't move, it was like her whole body was paralysed except her mind. Her eyes were half open but obviously no one headed her and instead packed her up at the back of the ambulance. Ji Eun decided to get some rest. She decided to walk down the dream path because she remembered the story her father used to tell her every night before she went to bed. It was a tale called 'The princess and her dreams'
Once upon a time, a princess could never sleep. She was always wondering everywhere. She walked up and down the huge mansion staircase, she walked out and in the kitchen finding for her favourite chocolate chip cookies, she walked in the garden and let her feet dance on the cold wet grass while sniffing the flowers which were planted so carefully. The King couldn't get his princess to sleep even though he tried everything. He tried to sing her a song, but she just got bored of it. Next, he tried to tempt her with extra cookies the next morning if she slept the night, but the princess didn't care because she could take as much cookies as she wanted at night. The King decided to scare her and told her the boogey man would catch her and eat her if she didn't sleep at night but once again the princess giggled and told her father that there were 100 armed men surrounding their mansion so no boogey man would get in here. The King was defeated, he felt as if he would never make her little girl sleep. One day, the princess asked her father a curious question.
"Daddy, what are dreams?"
That gave the King an idea. He brought a huge papers, paint, pencils and crayons. He then told her to draw whatever she wanted because whatever she drew, she will dream that exact thing and you can build your own palace in the skies. The princess was intrigued, wide eyed she asked "Anything?" The King nodded. From that night on, the princess drew castles and pink ponies galloping in the fields, huge swimming pools that were filled with fishes and a house made out of candy canes, chocolate chip and strawberry shortcake. She fell asleep right after that and she dreamt exactly that.
If you're wondering what happened to the princess afterwards, well she became a writer and she dreams everyday but now she dreams wide awake as well.
"Whenever you dream, it is a recollection of what has happened and what is bound to happened," Ji Eun's father used to say to her
Ji Eun closed her eyes and sank into the dream world . She hoped to find some truth somewhere in there.
"Oppa, I'm hungry!" the girl yelled and clutched her stomach in pain
the boy, dressed in khakis and a white shirt with a blue vest laughed at her and said, "Arrasso, why don't you come over to my house? My mum wouldn't mind you joining us," He extended his tiny hand to which she grabbed happily
"OMMA! I'M HOME" He yelled and his mother walked to the front of the house, a lavender scent trailing behind her.
"Who is this?" She asked bending down smiling at the little girl
"Ji Eun! She's the one that gave me this bracelet!"
"Ahhh, are you hungry?" The mother asked to which Ji Eun nodded her head frantically.
" Se Jin ! Can you fetch the President back from the office, its almost dinner time," The mother yelled at. a boy that was dressed in a suit . His golden brown eyes landed on Ji Eun
"Annyeong, who are you?" He asked ruffling her hair and smiling down at her.
"I'm Ji Eun! I'm 4 ," She said and smiled
"WAH! That is a pretty bracelet, where did you get it from? Was it from your mother?"
"Nope! I made it and I made it for Oppa too!" She grinned a toothy smile "Here give me your hand!"
She pulled his hand and placed a blue and white string on it with gold sparkles and tied it tightly around his wrist.
"We're all friends now!" She said to which Ji Woo smiled and ruffled her hair again while pinching her cheeks
"Park Se Jin ," The mother said in a stern voice
Se Jin nodded and grab the keys before heading out
"Jungkook Oppa!" She said before sitting next to him and digging in, eating to her hearts content
"Jungkook.....Jung....Jung...Jungkook Oppa....," Ji Eun uttered.
